A Day in the Oceanarium

"All the earth will declare that Your love is everywhere,
the fields will exalt, seas resound,
hear the trees joyful cries,
praising You and so will I,
a new song I'll sing,
Lord, I will glorify and praise Your Holy Name!"

This is a song which means a lot to me, the very first few praise songs I learned in Lifeline worship team. Today I finally rewarded myself for the completion of the Forensic Botany module and the report -- with a trip to Oceanario de Lisboa. Indeed it's one of the finest oceanarium I had been so far. I was in Aquaria KLCC and Oceanarium of Barcelona. They too are good with quality collection of marine life but the open sea concept of this oceanarium is just innovative! I went round and round yet not one side is the same as the other. Ample of space for everyone to have a good look at the sea creatures. The marine life is well taken care of. This is definitely something Portugal must be proud of! All descriptions are bilingual - Portuguese and English.  I wished I have seen the one in Valencia too... I heard that is awesome too.

I thank God for the few months in Lisbon. It just feel like there are so much Lisbon has to offer that my plate is constantly full! Another few weeks before I fly home.. I still have yet seen Sintra which was described as magical by some. I want to see what someone had seen so that I know what he went through... and the zoo of Lisbon also is in my list. Not forgetting Porto too...

There are just so much... yet time is limited :) The best is the church community whom I have come to know... and starting to serve in liturgy of the Word. That's God's goodness in my life..
